When having a large number of icons on your desktop, it may be really difficult to access your desired program in a short time, because it may be really difficult to find its icon. Having a large number of shortcuts on your desktop can also give a nasty aspect to it. But this inconvenient is fixed when installing the SliderDock application, a program which gives you a faster and easier method of accessing your desired programs, by adding an icon ring on your desktop.

The icon ring can successfully replace the traditional shortcuts and allows adding more shortcuts than you could normally add to a normal desktop. After installing and launching the application, the icon ring will be displayed on the desktop, featuring some sample shortcuts, like Computer, Recycle Bin and one for accessing the program's website. The user can easily add new icons to the ring or can even create a new ring, in case the existing one is full.

After adding the desired icons, the user will be able to easily access his programs, because a description is displayed for each shortcut, when clicking on it. In this way, the user will know what icon to click on and, thus, will save a lot of time and effort. Each icon can have its own description, which can be displayed when hovering the mouse cursor over it. An unlimited number of icon rings can be added to the program, each containing its own icons.

Pros: It can replace the desktop shortcuts by adding an icon ring to your screen. Besides that, each icon can contain a name and a description which can be displayed when hovering the mouse cursor over it. Furthermore, several rings can be created.

Cons: The number of features presented by the application seems a bit limited.

SliderDock allows you to add an icon ring to your desktop, making it easier to access your favorite applications.
